So my poor boy was just getting done with a chest infection when he got struck down with norovirus Thursday evening. He was sick a lot that night but it slowed down and Friday morning he seemed in good spirits. He suddenly went super sleepy which is unheard of for him and he took a gigantic 2/3 hour nap. As soon as he woke up he was sick again, that was the last time he was sick, so over 48 hours a go.
He then spent all of yesterday sleeping, I haven’t been too worried because he’s having wet nappies, still drinking a fair bit and hasn’t had any sort of temperature. However, today he has spent the majority of the time rubbing his tummy and crying, I can also hear it rumbling as though he’s hungry.
Now this is where it gets difficult, he does have autism and is very behind on his speech, communication and understanding so it is very hard for us to figure out what’s wrong with him and he also doesn’t understand us a great deal.
I’m totally understanding of how he’s feeling because me and my partner both came down with it a day later and we both feel so horrendous and don’t want to eat but know we probably need to.
We’ve tried offering him absolutely everything in existence, he has taken the tiniest bites from things but that’s about it, I just don’t know what to do for him 😢😢😢 He’s currently just crying and crying, I’m really at a loss!
